This study is evaluating a minimally invasive treatment for adults with chronic low back pain caused by disc degeneration. The goal is to see whether this approach can safely reduce pain and improve daily function compared to standard non-surgical care.

Participants will receive either the study treatment or continue with standard non-surgical care. 

Those receiving the study treatment will undergo a minimally invasive procedure using a needle-based approach (no major surgery).

All participants will be followed over time, with visits at approximately:

• 1 month
• 3 months
• 6 months
• 12 months
• 24 months

At these visits, participants will:

• Complete questionnaires about pain and daily activities
• Be evaluated for symptom changes and overall health

You may qualify if you:

• Are between 22 and 85 years old
• Have chronic low back pain lasting at least 6 months
• Have not improved after standard treatments (such as physical therapy, medications, or injections)
• Have pain primarily coming from one or two discs in the lower back

You may not qualify if you:

• Have had prior back surgery
• Have significant nerve-related leg pain (sciatica more than back pain)
• Have certain spine conditions (such as severe spinal instability or fractures)
• Have active infection or certain serious medical conditions
• Are pregnant
